If I were a... is a common personality game where the participants complete sentences such as:

  • If I were a flower, I would be a ____ because _____.
  • If I were an animal, I would be a ____ because _____.
  • If I were a food, I would be a ____ because _____.

The participants' answers are supposedly indicative of their personality in some way. For example, one person might say if I were an animal, I would be a wolverine because I am fierce and aggressive while another might say if I were an animal, I would be a puppy dog because I am cute and cuddly.
